Some time ago, co-worker friend of mine paid alot for a trashed war era jeep.
They are very desired in original form.
I still remember him showing me things like the headlights could be turned in to light up the engine bay.
After seeing that, I could understand the value of the war jeeps.
If you want to put an after-market body on a jeep, there may be more modern drive trains to start with?

The replacement body you mentioned I think would be a waste. These jeeps are mostly straight sheet metal and what little is curved is only 2 dimensional. Who wants to throw away three grand on a body that could be better spent on your VX anyways?:bgwg:

LOL...looks like they've been using it as the "19th hole" for chipping practice...
Back in high school, my wheelin' buddy Jim (Trooper Jim, my roomie @ the Rock) had a 46' Willys w/ a 283 bowtie under the hood. MAN we had a lotta fun trashin' that thing...
